We would like to say a huge thank you to Lisa & Emily Chapman for organising a Race Night to raise funds for Maxi’s Mates. Also everyone who came to the race night or donated, bought raffle tickets. They raised a fantastic £900.

They will be giving £200 to dogs in distress and £700 to maxis mates! Also a special thank you to our Rico for being Maxis Mates mascot for the evening. He was such a good boy and he did so well.

We would like to give a very special thank you to a lovely girl . Josie Marshall aged 4 years walked to the top of Roseberry Topping on 5/2/17. She raised a fantastic £186 for us . What a lovely thing to do , and so very appreciated

We received a huge donation of food from Lilys Kitchen. This consisted of lots of tinned wet food, dry food for both adult dogs and puppies. A lot of our dogs especially staffs are on a grain free diet. This is ideal as they are prone to have skin conditions. This donation is really appreciated and we cant thank all those at Lilys Kitchen enough.

VET UPDATE
Good news they are going to operate on Tuesday morning as long as her chest is ok on the day it will go ahead . Vet said it will be a complicated operation . It’s spread to her rectum and they won’t know if other organs until they operate on her . But she’s got a chance . The cost of the operation , treatment and aftercare should be around £800 maximum . We have started her jabs today and hope she gets the chance she deserves . ❤️🍀

HOLLY
We have just taken in this poor female Labrador from Hambleton Area as a stray 17/11/16. The warden was expecting to come for her on her 7th day to take her to be put to sleep on their vets advice . She has a large tumour as you can see from the photos . We have seen this before with Pebbles and it was successfully operated on. Pebbles was then adopted and is very happy in her forever home . We would like to give Holly this chance too . She’s going to the vets today that performed Pebbles op and we hope to have an idea of the costs , prognosis this afternoon .
If anyone would like to help us pay for this operation and treatment we would be very grateful . We couldn’t have done it without the support of so many kind and generous people for Pebbles. Here’s hoping we can do the same for Holly . Despite the tumour she’s very sweet , wriggly and wouldn’t keep still so I could take a good photo . She’s just so friendly and looks like she still has so much life in her . Let’s give her this chance ☘️☘️☘️☘️

BBC tees visited our kennels yesterday linked to the growing problem of owner surrenders and abandoned dogs .They videoed some of our dogs we have in . We have also been on the radio on the breakfast show .

As we are their registered charity they have raised £488.38 for us during their recent support adoption for pets campaign during the summer. Thank you very much on behalf of all our dogs we all appreciate it

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to the dedicated and continued support of a wonderful group of people called Friends Of Maxi’s.

Donations can still be dropped off outside the hours as we will have a donation bin for bedding, food etc just at the gate. We appreciate your co-operation and kind support.
